Home page & sitewide

* Need ALT text for logo image
* Need ALT text for the front page homepage-graphic.jpg
* Search box needs an ALT for the magnifying glass image AND starter placeholder text that can be grabbed by an assistive-tech browser. See http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10-HTML-TECHS/#forms-graphical-buttons

Dataset listing page

See the Search box ALT comment above

Dataset detail page

The “Dataset Info” table on the detail page needs some additional information to be useful to table-reading assistive-tech. Basically, we need to use the scope attribute as explained here: http://access-board.gov/sec508/guide/1194.22.htm#(g)

We should probably include a default table summary attribute as well when rendering any Dataset Info table.

Resource detail page

The “Additional information” table on the Resource detail page also needs scope attributes applied as mentioned in the previous section. In addition, we should probably render a default table summary attribute in this context as well.

Groups listing page

If we’re going to use a table for display purposes, as it appears we’re doing, we need to include a table summary attribute as well.

Which tables should have an attribute "Summary"? I need screenshot.
On the page type Resource we get error "Data transformation failed. error: An error occured while connecting to the server: Unable to fetch URL: http://dkan/sites/default/files/data_4.csv" we can't see the “Additional information”. On the page type Group we don't see any tables.

@Jim, can you be more specific? The slickgrid doesn't create a traditional table. Where would we put the scope attribute.

@acaster, ignore the table for now.

That is a good question and I have no idea. Could there be some progressive enhancement where a traditional HTML table is sent and then replaced w/ the slickgrid? The raw data isn't really accessible anyway in a CSV file of any useful size.

A label has been added to the search block, but since the block is displayed twice on some pages, it is being flagged for having TWO labels.
